Ideally situated directly across the street from the Promenade des Anglais and all of Nice's beaches and close to all amenities, this freshly-refurbished holiday apartment is ideal for a relaxing and unforgettable summer break in this vibrant Riviera seaside resort.

The apartment is on the 3rd floor of an elevator building and consists of a well-equipped kitchen, 1 double sofa bed, fridge, 2 ring hob, microwave, bathroom, balcony and storage space.

The apartment is equipped with everything to make your stay easy and relaxing including double glazing.

Free internet access (public wifi) is available in the flat.

Please note that there is a security deposit of 250 euros to hand in upon your arrival. We will it back to you once we have done the check out.

There is no need for a car, public transport is minutes away. The airport is just 15 mins away and the airport bus stops very nearby. Underground parking (pay) is about 100m away from the complex.

They are numerous restaurants nearby and supermarkets for self-catering. Nice is a perfect base from which to explore the rest of the Côte d'Azur, Corsica and the Italian Riviera. Neighbouring cities like Cannes, Villefranche sur Mer, Monaco and Menton are easily reachable by bus or by car.

Bed linen and towels (for two people) are not included and are a supplement of 25 euros per two people.

I was at the apartment with my two sons and we really enjoyed our stay there. I had booked the flat before getting a flight. ( 3 days before takeoff) In the panic of not being able to secure a flight, I opted to cancel the stay, to which the owner was more than willing to refund my payment, but all went well because we management to secure a flight just in time (1 day before takeoff). When I look back, I cannot help being thankful for the support and understanding of Mr. Didier and the team at Wimdu. Thank you all.

It is a nice flat near the sea. Everything is very close to the house. Didier's parents are very kindly, however they don't speak English. Everything was good, though there was only 3 blankets for 4 people. But it was hot in Nice when we were there so we wasn't cold. And Hungary played a very good football match with Portugal in Lyon at the EURO2016!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Éva from Hungary.

First of all, we have to say, that we had a pleasant week in Nice - also thanks to the flat.

Good points:
- really kind and helpful hosts :-) merci bien
- little carrefour nearby and a bigger one only about 1 km further
- bus station nearby (app. 10 - 20 minutes to the center - depending where you
wanna leave the bus)
- bank nearby
- beach nearby and NOT crowded (mid July!!)
- flat is big enough for a family with kids, but there are only two double bed
- WiFi, TV, Radio, Washing machine, big frige, microwave.

almost good points:
parking situation (narrow parking slots and sometimes not easy to find any - even though we always got one)
coming from the sea, entry of the building is on the other side, but access through cellar is possible (climbing 2 floors).
elevator only from 1st floor (you need to carry up heavy stuff like suitcase or water one or two floors depending where you park and enter - cellar or base floor).

Generally we really liked our stay and can recommend it, if you don't need 100% comfort (but then, you should consider a hotel anyway ;-) )

Maybe the french standards are a bit different from what i`m used to, so this might be too negative, but:

150m from the beach? NO. The gate to the area might be some hundred meters from the beach, but once you`re inside you have to walk pretty far to get to the exact building.

Elevator? Yes, but pretty small. We had two babies whith babystrollers... didn`t fit in the elevator at all. It might fit two persons without baggage. And they have to hold their breath! I didn`t plan on carrying two strollers up and down many times a day when i ordered this apartment.

Internett/WiFi? Well...i could connect one time to the internett...and i guess i tried 30 times! We got some info about that Explorer could be a litte unstable, so we tried Chrome and Firefox too, but it didn`t work.

Family/kid-friendly? I`ve already written about the elevator. When we left the strollers downstairs because we should go to the apartment to eat some lunch, someone just put our strollers in the basement. We found a note in one of the strollers, but we dont know french, so i dont know what it said. I guess we could`nt do that. Carrying the strollers 4 floor up and down EVERY time we should get something was exhausting. But the area is quiet, that`s positive! There`s no playarea for older children. There is no babybeds or babychairs or nothing else for babies.

Outside the apartment: It`s nice and (most of the time) quiet, and there is a beautiful garden. But at our stay there were many people working on the garden and the pavement. They started early in the morning and the noice was so loud we had to shout at each other when we sat at the balcony. One time I tried to put the stroller outside so i could see the baby from the balcony when he was sleeping. (Because i guess i wasn`t alowed to put him inside downstairs...!) But it was so noicy my baby woke up.

Equipment: without maybe two paintings and a radio there wasn`t much in the apartment. In the kitchen we found some equipment, but i wouldn`t call it "fully equipped". For example there is no washingclothes or things like that. The glasses/plates and other things weren`t clean. The oven didn`t work. In the bedrooms there was one blanket in each room. In the sofabed there were none. Not a pillow either. So we slept with a towel on top!

Service: We got good service, but they only spoke french (The owners parents came to meet us when we came, and they also did the check-out) They didn`t speake a single word english. They were nice and friendly!

Clean: NO. In the closets and drawers there was hair and dirt. In one drawer there was used boxershorts and other mens wear!

So all in all:

Positive things: Not too far from the beach (But it`s further than 150m!) A quiet area (When the workers are done!) two big bedrooms, close to busstops, close to a little supermarket and a bakery, nice garden, nice balcony
